One horse length. This question is on HOWRSE.com.
Listen to your instructor, always wear a helmet, leave lots a space between your horse and other horses.
When you are riding on another horse behind a horse, always keep the space of an "imaginary horse" between the two of you. If you are just walking behind a horse, run your hand along their behind to let them know you are there, and if is a bigger horse just make a circle around it.
Some people say that if a horse goes berserk not in a closed space then it may attack any other people or living thing in the area or kill them.
Horses are large animals that need plenty of space. They can also be temperamental. When riding, a gap about the length of one horse should be kept between horses. (When riding abreast, the width of one horse should be kept between the riders). Horse's stalls should not be shared - each horse should have its own stall. The stalls should also be large enough that when standing in the middle of the stall, neither of a horse's neighbours can reach it. The horse should have room to turn around and lie down comfortably in the stall. The statement that horses all sleep standing up is a myth - horses can sleep standing up, but many prefer to lie down, and this takes the strain off their joints. Horses need at least an acre of pasture each.
Well, generally no, but if your garden is a big paddock, then yes. Horses need the space to run around to keep fit, although you will probably be riding them as well. They also need room to stretch their legs. If you want a horse then I would suggest keeping him or her at a riding school. And if you want to ride the horse, make sure you have riding lessons before.
Normally, when on a ride, in the arena or out on the trail (anywhere for that matter) you should keep a 1 - horse length between you and the horse i front of you, so: Imagine that you are out on a ride with your friends. You are in the middle of your two friends. You don't know if the horse that your friend is riding kicks. (This is friend number 1 [the friend ahead of you on the ride]) Imagine that there is an invisible horse between you and friend number 1. That's how far you should be behind her. There should also be an invisible horse between you and friend number 2, the friend behind you. That way, if one horse does spook, or kick, you and your horse most likely will be safe. Hopefully that kinda cleared things up for you.
A padock or a arena. I Could easily be wrong.
It is simply called a forehead. But, the space between the ears is called the poll. The poll (this is the point directly between the ears).
you should give enough space between you and the horse so that if the horse kicks you will not be in the way, and you wont get hurt
Always wear either a helmet (if you are inexperienced) or a cowboy hat, jeans, chaps or long paints to protect from rubbing, leave lots of space between your horse and the one around you, look where you are going, when riding outside wear some sort of reflective gear (for darker times of the day), watch for cars always ride at the shoulder of the road.
they were not people. the first hot chocolate was made by Velociraptors on a horse riding through space. They shot a lazer at the sun, and it gifted them with hot chocolate as a reward for there power.
Any age, just wear a riding helmet and PROPER boots, and preferably have an adult present. Asking when you can ride a horse is like asking 'when can i sit on a space hopper?' what ever age you want, just take care!
